never once in my time on mastodon has me asking an account for alt text resulted in that account responding that they will do it

it’s always, always no

and i’ve asked multiple accounts, from popular web comics to niche posters

always no, maybe followed by a long justification as to why it’s not worth doing

just in case you’re wondering why alt text people sound angry

i’m sighted and it’s already gotten so old and predictable

I know it's an ongoing theme with me but I keep on looking at some of the worst things happening in current events and I remember how closely they resemble the worst behaviors of my age peers in public school.

They really are the same behaviors scaled upwards for an adult context.
